should i upgrade my pc or buy a new one

Go to solution Solved by AskTJ,

I suggest a GTX 1060 6GB but the i5 might hold it back. Try to buy an i7 4770k or 4790k. They should perform ok with the card.

hello, i have an MSI nightblade MI-020EU i was looking into changing it's case since its so small i was looking into a case with better cooling but i was also looking into new a new gpu and more ram.

my question is should i buy a new gpu, new ram and a new case and upgrade or should i just buy a new pc?

I think the i5 will do just fine.. CPU is seldom the bottleneck for most titles. especially if he is gaming at higher resolution.

Clearly you haven't played any game at 144 Hz or played PUBG :P
